Menopausal Profile

Comprehensive Blood Test to Assess Menopause and Hormonal Changes

The Menopausal Profile is a targeted blood test designed to evaluate key hormone levels associated with menopause and thyroid health. It provides vital insights into the hormonal shifts that occur during the menopausal transition, helping women better understand and manage symptoms, or confirm their menopausal status.

What’s Included in the Test?

This profile measures:

Estradiol (E2): The main form of estrogen, which decreases during menopause

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH): Rises as ovarian function declines; a key marker of menopause

Luteinizing Hormone (LH): Also increases during menopause, reflecting reduced reproductive activity

Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH): Evaluates thyroid function, which may influence or mimic menopausal symptoms

Who Should Take This Test?

The Menopausal Profile is recommended for women who are:

Experiencing symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, irregular periods, or vaginal dryness

Seeking to confirm menopausal or perimenopausal status

Wanting to check for thyroid issues, which can present with similar symptoms

What Can This Test Reveal?

Menopausal status: Confirms whether a woman is in menopause or transitioning into it

Thyroid abnormalities: Helps rule out or detect thyroid dysfunctions like hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism
